She was speaking very clearly, in prepared statements, about "certainly remembering" the event. She spoke about it in detail, and she was clearly just inventing those details out of thin air. "Faulty recollection" indeed... faulty recollection would be if she mixed up the name of the base she landed at, or messed up the date, or "oh, oops, the running with our heads down from the sniper fire was from that other trip I took, I must have got them mixed up".

This is none of those things. She's never been under sniper fire in her life, and that's not the kind of thing you make an "oopsie" about due to a memory lapse. And she wasn't under the mistaken impression at the time that she was under sniper fire, the video makes it quite clear she didn't have any concerns about any such things while she was casually strolling around the tarmac with a big smile on her face, in the open, and exchanging niceties with diplomats and little children.

There is no way to spin this as anything other than a fabrication.
